of which the following is a specification. p

This invention has reference to cabinets, and more particularly to cabinets especially designed for cobblers use, the primary object of the invention being to provide a cabinet for retaining nails, heels or the like so that the person using the cabinet will have easy and ready access to the contents thereof.

A further object of the inventionis to provide compartments for supporting rubber heels, the compartments having cut out portions providing clearances for'the persons fingers using the device to facilitate the re moval of the heels.

With the foregoing and other objects in departing from the spirit of the invention.

The forward sections are designed to accommodate rubber heels and to this end, it is the purpose of the inventor to secure a heel indicated at 13, to the front wall 11 of the forward compartment, the number of therheel'appearing directly under the same, so that the operator may at a glance remove I the proper sized heelfor the work to be accomplished, the use being as follows. With the cabinet close at hand, the operator places theheel on the shoe on which he is working over the sample heel 13 which. is supported by the cabinet, and locates the proper sized heel.

When the proper sized heel is located, the

cobbler may by inserting his fingers in the cut out portion in the front wall of the section on-which the rubber heel is supported, remove a heel which will exactly fit the shoe under operation. From the foregoing it will be'seen that the use of this cabinet eliminates the necessity of removing rubber heels from their boxes to fit the same on heels of shoes being repaired, inorderthat the propersized heel maybe located.

'The-cabinet is also provided wit-ha front cloth, to permit the operatorto readily raise the cloth and remove nails tacks 'or'the. like, I

In the modified form of the invention as illustrated by Fig.3, a hinged door 15 forms the front wall of the cabinet, and is I normally held in its closed position by net and compartment into sections,.a movable wall forming the front of the cabinet,

.- and a front wall for the compartment. The forward sections which are indicated by thereference character 10 have the front wall thereof, which is indicated at 11 formed In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own, I have hereto aflixed signa ture in'the presence of two witnesses.
